Modernism and openness are the two prevalent aspects of the Villa S2 by MARC Architects. The high ceilings and open decor gives the two-story villa an emphasized feel of spaciousness, which is enhanced even further from its full-scale windows that extends the view beyond the IJ Lake. Continuing the house is its tiled terrace that sits on top of the villa’s surrounding lush garden, while its interior marks the metropolitan architect’s feat in aesthetically clean design.
